Bangladeshi couple sentenced to death in Saudi, mother pleads – I want to touch her son dead body once

The case of hanging of two Bangladeshi citizens in Saudi Arabia has raised many serious questions. Nazrul Islam, who worked as a cleaning worker at Mecca’s Masjid al-Haram, was arrested in 2023, according to Bangladeshi media reports. Now after his death, the family has raised questions regarding the judicial process and the information about the incident. The most painful is the plea of ​​his mother, who wishes to see her son’s face and touch his body for the last time.

Last conversation with mother was three days before hanging

According to Bangladeshi media reports, Nazrul Islam’s mother said that she last spoke to her son on October 11. Three days later, information about his hanging came to light. The family claims that they were not informed about this in advance.

There is hardly any greater sorrow for a mother than the news of her son’s death, but when the circumstances of the death and the information related to the last rites are not clear, this pain increases further. Nazrul’s mother’s desire to touch her son’s dead body once reflects this pain.

Nazrul was arrested in 2023

According to reports, Nazrul Islam worked as a cleaning worker in Mecca’s Masjid al-Haram. He was arrested in 2023 for alleged immoral activity with a woman.

However, what evidence was presented before the court in this case, what arguments were given during the hearing and on what basis the death sentence was awarded, the answers to these questions are not publicly clear.

Friend claimed language problem

A friend of Nazrul claimed that he was innocent. According to the friend, Nazrul could not present his side properly due to language problem.

This claim brings to the fore questions like fair trial in the case and adequate opportunity to the accused to present his case. However, these allegations cannot be independently confirmed without copies of the court proceedings and judgment being available.

Bangladesh government sought answers from Saudi Arabia

Regarding the matter, Bangladesh government has asked Saudi Arabia for a copy of the court’s decision and details of the entire incident. This is expected to bring clarity on the judicial process of the case and aspects related to informing the family before the execution.

Now the most important question in this case of giving death sentence to two Bangladeshi citizens is that on the basis of which allegations and evidence the court gave its verdict. Also, official information is awaited on these aspects, when the family was informed about the hanging and what procedure was adopted for handing over the bodies of the deceased.

At the moment, Nazrul’s mother’s desire to see her son for the last time has become the most emotional aspect of this entire case. The family is now waiting for answers to the questions which remain unresolved even after the death of a son.
